AKTOBE, Kazakhstan, July 22 (Xinhua) -- Investigation into the crashed training aircraft "L-39" continued Monday in Aktobe, the administrative center of Kazakhstan's Aktobe region.

"Now investigations are carried out. The black box is preserved, but experts will conclude in twenty days or in a month," Bahytkazy Zhuniszhanov, head of the Military Investigation Department of the Western Region of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, said Monday.

According to him, there were some twenty versions of the causes for the incident.

"By process of elimination you can only come to the right conclusion," Zhuniszhanov noted.

The chief of military and investigative management explained that accident on a runway of the Aktobe airport is investigated jointly with the inter-departmental commission.
